LogicaCMG
secures IT services partner status with Shell
Posted: 7 May 2003
LogicaCMG recently announced a new master service agreement
with Shell International.
The first project under this agreement, worth up to 20 million
Euros over the next two years, will be the implementation of a SAP
solution to help standardise the operational processes within Shell
Europe Oil Products. The implementation will cover the United Kingdom,
Ireland, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Norway, Finland
and Denmark with central support in the Netherlands.
LogicaCMG can take part in all relevant tenders the oil company
puts out worldwide; this is part of Shell’s strategy to develop
and implement software solutions on an international scale to meet
the global needs of the Group. Both Logica and CMG already have
a good track record at Shell, based on their know-how and the prompt
execution within budget of ICT assignments.
The decisive factor for the framework agreement was the improved
geographic spread of the merged LogicaCMG.
Jos Steeman of Shell Europe Oil Products, responsible for business
process standardisation said: “Standardisation and simplification
of our processes and systems in a cost effective manner is more
important than ever. We have therefore initiated a programme to
achieve these objectives in Europe. LogicaCMG has given us consultancy
and programme services in the past and we are convinced that they
will be an excellent business partner to us for the future and therefore
will help us to achieve our ambitions.”
LogicaCMG’s strong track record at Shell is based on successful
SAP projects and the outsourcing of Application Management Services
(AMS). Under the strategic cooperation agreement, LogicaCMG will
provide Shell with even more extensive services.
